Carheex the people who can afford minimum a grand to follow Liverpool are unlikely to be 21 year old exuberant types.

In my view they are the same as existing holders it's just the clubs reserves are being used up. Once the waiting list is used up what then ?

Bad facilities average team sky high prices based on historical brand that is fading fast.

I took at hard look at the fans today (precious little else of interest) I would say fifty percent at least were 50 years of age and older.

Great future the club has got where are the new fans coming from ?

I think this is a great opportunity to refresh the matchday crowd and build for the future. We should look at it positively. It's a natural cycle - creation, sustenance, destruction. We're in that phase where the old order is being destroyed but a new order is being created. We need to be positive.

I can see a lot not renewing next season.


for every person that doesn't renew, someone else with more money will take their place. as you say, the atmosphere's already a shadow of it's former self so the current match goers won't be missed. maybe the new ticket holders won't take things for granted and they'll sing their hearts out with glee and restore the famous anfield atmosphere?


Agreed, hopefully so...because all I have heard for the past month or so from the so called, long standing, loyal fans...is whinging and crying about ticket prices..and I have had quite enough of it. It depressing. Those same people try and give out lectures about loyalty and support to others, just because they go to the matches. Well lads, let me tell you, you are of no use if you go to the matches to sit and mope...either cheer and sing and create an atmosphere, or get your butts outta there and let some fans who are willing to cheer the team on take your place.

If you can't WALK ON THROUGH THE RAIN, then just walk on...

I am not giving up hope..I know our chances of achieving something grand next season are not great, but take my word for it, I AM NOT GIVING UP HOPE and depressing everyone around me!

The day that i no longer have HOPE IN MY HEART, the day I know longer believe we can do it, we can create a miracle...that's the day I will no longer be a true supporter.

I suggest some of you on here take a look in the mirror and reexamine where your alliegences lie. I know you are all reds, but I can't make you see that. That's something you will need to rediscover on your own..and when you do, and those stands roar with support from LFC fans, when that ROAR, starts carrying the team on the pitch,when the players see that, when they too start to believe, then LFC will rise to success again.

A fan without hope is not a fan..but a spectator...

LET'S CREATE A POSITIVE CHANGE, STARTING WITH OURSELVES!

Fine by me but I assume you are not one of the new order? The affectionados of the ticket increases all have one thing in common they don't go to anfield.

admitted Stan, I'm not of the new order. I wasn't lucky enough to have been born or settled in Liverpool.

My view is not a criticicm of you or anyone else that's been going for many years. I'm just pointing out that change is natural and inevitable. If it didn't happen now it was only a matter of time before it did happen.

Hopefully... the new order will provide a good mix of those who can afford higher prices and those who will create an atmosphere.

well in from the game now ok not a good result but in reality does it matter ?? not to me i watched the crowd today ok in the end its there money do what they like with it , but if liverpool want a museum or a tourist attraction then the plan works , and as i said earlier i am not disillusioned with the team or the manager because as all season and as i expect its good, bad and indifferent and i dont really care no more , and its killing me to have these feelings the way the club is now , i know most on here will mock and get a joke out of it , but i hope some day you dont feel like i do about something you love .

funny how the old timers who chased kenny out after 1 season, have now fallen out of love with club

kenny has more knowledge about liverpool and football in his nutsack than BR has in his whole 40,000 page david brent thesis.

loss of tradition comes with knee jerk removals of footballing legends that have just won a trophy and had the team battering the best teams in league. a few tweaks was all that was needed for top 4, instead we usher in david brent...shame on you all

faz... everything comes to an end at some point. just like owners, fans are only custodians. we need to be able to hand things on to the next generation with grace and dignity. What's happening to you now happened to others previously - i.e. those who couldd' affort the previous price hikes. But that didn't stop the club and the fans who could afford it. Let's hope the same happens now.
